Faasik Branches

On 28th to 31st may 2010 Faasikkenya took an active and effective role for sensitizing and passing strong lessons to the Muslim community in Malindi about HIV and TB. The training was successful and we are grateful for the generous support of all stakeholders. Below is a picture of one of our facilitator in the actual act and demonstration during the training.

Outcomes

During the training there were cases where we found the effects of Stigma as a result of HIV, and one was for a Lady by the name of Zarah who lost her Job and sad to say got a Stroke too which was as a result of the Stigma. Below is a picture of Zarah being assisted by one of the Facilitators of Faasikkenya.( we apologize some of the pictures we put are sad but we wish to show the reality facing our communities).Kindly we wish to thank all the stakeholders and ask all those who are generous and have been to keep on assisting us continue our work to reach as many as we can in the community and empower the message of Hope when all is felt lost.
